Key’s POV

“I need to think…” Minho repeated through the phone after I told him what _____~ answered me.

“Yeah…” I said

“I need to think, hum…” Minho repeated again

“OK, stop it. Those words hurt more than what I thought”

He chuckled faintly, “Sorry… But, I don’t really get it either. What would she need to think about?”

I snorted, “You’re actually asking me? What would I know…”

“Want me to get some info for you?”

I sighed, “Nah, better don’t. It’s really all up to her”

Damn everything…

Your POV

I know what I should do

I should talk to Jonghyun…

But is there really anything to talk about?

I mean, we were just… flirting, right? We never said that we like each other or anything

Maybe I’m just overreacting and thinking too much…

Suddenly, a conversation window on my Facebook popped.

This is so ironic…

Jonghyun: Hey , how are ya? :)

I sighed.

Me: Fine oppa, and you?

Jonghyun: Fine too ^^ hey, wanna do something later?

Me: Srry, I can’t…

Jonghyun: Hu... Why :( ?

Me: I need to... study

Jonghyun: Whats with the three periods? Are u really ok?

Me: Sure, why wouldn’t I?

Jonghyun: Idk, just asking. Anyways, study for what? Do we have a test?

Me: Oppa…

He started to write something but I sent my message before he could send his and he stopped writing for a moment:

Me: I need to talk 2 u

…

“Silence” …

Jonghyun: About what?

Me: Ok, let’s meet up in the afternoon in the park near ur house, seems nice to u?

Jonghyun: I guess… ?

You have logged off

Prepare yourself mentally. What are you gonna say?

“So, yeah Jjong- I don’t know if you knew but I liked you and now I don’t…”

Why would I even tell him that?

If he didn’t like me back, it’s pointless.

Well… Let’s say that I’m telling him because I want to be a good friend of his and I don’t want him to not trust me.

it.

I arrived to the park when it was starting to get dark.

I’ll have to go back home at night… I don’t like that

I looked around looking for Jjong and I found him sitting on a bench, looking at the ground and thinking, I guess.

A sigh came out of my mouth; I bet he’s worried…

“Jonghyun!” I yelled to him and approached running. Jjong looked at me and smiled faintly.

“Hey” he greeted me and patted the bench, indicating me to sit.

I sat beside him, “Hi”

“How are you? Oh, I guess I already asked that before, huh…” Jjong smiled faintly again.

“Mm” I gave him a nod

“So…” he cleared his throat, “What did you want to tell me?”

I gulped.

Yah, don’t worry. He’s your friend

“This is more like a confession of my thoughts” I started and chuckled dryly

He looked at me and lifted a frown chuckling like me, “Yeah? Ok, tell me what are you thinking right now”

“I’m thinking that… Well, that you’re a great guy”

“Yeaaah…” he looked at the ground again

“And that… Heh, I’m nervous”

Jonghyun looked at me, “Why?”

I sighed, “Promise me something”

Jonghyun nodded

“Promise me that we’re going to be good friends no matter what, Ok?”

Jonghyun smiled and nodded again, “Deh”

I sighed again.

“Right, so… Jonghyun, I liked you. I liked you a lot I think”

He widened his eyes and coughed, “C-Chongmal?”

I blushed and nodded, “Deh… But now it’s different. I felt like I should let you know it because… I thought that something happened. I’m not really sure, but now… Now I like Key. I think I love Key”

Jonghyun now looked away and nodded, “I… I get it. Thanks for telling me anyways”

I leaned a bit towards him, “Did… something happened between us?”

He looked at me smiling and then looked away again, “I don’t know, I’m not really sure, haha… But, yeah… Thanks”

I smiled and patted his back, “No, thanks to you for listening. I feel so much lighter right now… Hug?” I opened my arms standing in front of him

He smiled, stood up and hugged me.

“Friends?” I asked

Jjong chuckled, “Of course, friends”

We separated from each other and shook hands.

“Then, goodbye buddy” I smiled at him

“Bye, buddy” he waved his hand while I walked away

“I liked you too, buddy…”

For God’s sake, it’s so dark. So scary…

What if someone assaults me? Or me?

, I’m getting nervous and paranoid.

I started to walk faster and faster as my level of nervousness was increasing.

The street was so damn dark and lonely that any sound freaked me out.

Suddenly, a hand took my hand from behind making me scream my lungs out.

“Calm down you psycho!” the male voice yelled

“Don’t touch me!” I screamed and whacked the silhouette behind me

“A-Aish! Easy! It’s me!”

I half-closed my eyes in an attempt to discover who that person was.

I widened my eyes and gasped when I realized who it was.

“K-Key!?”
